1. For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
2. If you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me toward you:
3. How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote before in few words,
4. By which, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
5. Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
6. That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
7. Of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.
8. Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
